Pizzapalooza: Kelleher’s and Agatucci’s join forces

The pub, 619 SW Water St., will add Agatucci’s pizza to its late-night menu and will be marking the occasion with a pizza party from 6 to 8 p.m. Monday.

There will be free samples of Agatucci’s pizza and – even better – members of the fun-loving Agatucci family will be present.

Agatucci’s has been serving pies in Peoria since 1926, and the business recently launched a line of frozen pizzas. Perhaps you’ve seen the billboards (“Our pizza, your oven.”) I haven’t yet tried the frozen version, but a co-worker tells me it’s quite delicious. Perhaps a blind taste test should be in my future?
